Let's Get Married novel Chapter 338

Rex's assistant Fraser personally drives to send Lily back to her apartment. On the road, the mood in the car is tense. Lily looks out at the scenery rushing past. She is still thinking of the warm and cold moments with Rex and is lost in her thoughts.

Fraser notices her uneasy demeanor and looks at her in the rearview mirror and asks out of concern, “Miss Lily, do you want to listen to some music?”

Lily comes to her senses and after a few seconds, she nods, “Okay.”

After five years, she is very nervous when she sees Rex. She is also very suspicious of his assistant, she doesn't know if he will go back to report to Rex about her condition.

Just when her thoughts are running wild, Fraser speaks again, “Actually you don't have to worry, to others, Mr. Rex looks very serious and cold but he isn't like that towards you.”

With what happened just now and now that he says this, Lily asks him in return, “How do you explain what happened just now?”

He won't harm her but he ignores her situation and violates her.

Fraser is silent for several seconds and looks like he is figuring out his reply. He has proper education since he was young and he also feels that what happened tonight was not fair to Lily, but…

“I know that you will find it difficult to accept what had happened tonight but Mr. Rex never meant to harm you. He simply got too excited and happy when he saw you, and probably had lost some of his reasons.” He had been by Rex's side for three years and after these years he has a good understanding of his boss's temper and character.

Rex has never lusted for any woman and never gone out of line. Though he doesn't regard women too highly, he is always respectful. He will never harm Lily just for a moment of pleasure, this is definite.

Lily seems to understand this logic but she doesn't want to admit it because only with this can she find a reason to hate him.

For this reason, her expression is sullen and her voice agitated, “You are his subordinate and will naturally speak up for him.”

Fraser opens his mouth but eventually keeps quiet. He indeed is trying to seek some justice for Rex and wants to help his boss explain but his intelligence tells him that Lily is no longer willing to listen. It is pointless to say anything more.

That's why he calmly apologizes and then maintains his silence.

The car proceeds and is stopped at the entrance by the security guard. Lily doesn't let him drive in and exits the car.

She walks with the night breeze and it is already very late. There aren't many homes with their lights on. She then sees the house that is brightly lit after looking around.

The lights are still on and they most likely are the dim wall lights.

She doesn't think too much and knows that Ryan must be anxious. She walks quickly to the lift and goes up to her level.

“Ting” the lift doors open, Lily sees the lights brighten up through the gap between the door and the floor. She steps out from the lift and sees a man smoking in the corridor.

She is shocked for a moment as she didn't expect to see him in the corridor. She walks over to him says nervously, “Ryan? Why are you here?”

“Waiting for you.” He takes a long draw of the cigarette and then flings it into the bin. His sharp eyes shift onto her body and looks at her from head to toe repeatedly.

Lily couldn't stand this inspection and feels flustered. She didn't intend to tell him about bumping into Rex. She has owed him so much over these years. She doesn't wish to hurt this man because of her issues.

With Lily's understanding of him, if he knows about it, things will certainly become more complicated.

“Something came up tonight which I had to attend to. It's not very important, you need not work.” Lily worries that he can sense that something is amiss and changes the topic, “is Adair asleep?”

“Initially he was looking for you then he was too tired and fell asleep.” He said calmly without any signs of abnormality.

Lily is relieved, “You can go back.”
